Electric fuel pump????

[H-1]

I am thinking of putting a electric fuel pump on my boat ,and was wanting to know if any one has any opions on it and if I needed to keep the priming bubble or not

Is your motor an EFI?

You will not need the primer bulb, if you install the pump

I wouldn't put it on a carbed motor my self....really only need the pump for EFI

I have been having trouble out of the last 2 bubbles on my boat and thought the electric fuel pump would take care of the problem.

Yeah...those primer bulbs can be a pain. The check valve in them goes bad.

I usually replace mine about once a year.

I have one on my old Mariner 150, and I love it. Just turn key and wait a few seconds, and starts right up.

You want need a prime bubble if you put on an elctric fuel pump. Like Flip said turn key on and wait a few secounds and it will fire right up. On some motors you may still have to hit the choke when you start it.
